Sometimes I like to make up random things.Sometimes I like to pull stunts when the Doctor is not paying attention, but this stunt is not just a stunt; it is to preserve our future as living individuals.The Doctor told me he was going to check up on a banana plantation that was fully operated by these little people calling themselves the WorkAholicselizans.The Doctor also warned me not to mess with the TARDIS.
"Workaholickewiiznas?" I repeat.
"Work-Aholic-seli-zans." The Doctor corrects me.
"That is a mouthful." I said.
"They're proud of the name." The Doctor said. "Before; they called themselves the Lazehions." The Doctor shook his head. "We had a lengthy conversation about the name change, unfortunately Jelly Babies were too big for them to take."
I couldn't really understand the concept behind such a weird name.
"Uh...is Lazehions supposed to mean lazy?" I ask.
"They have poor attention spans." The Doctor said. "In eye contact, in other words."
"Eye contact?..." I said. "So why not wear contacts?"
"I wasn't talking about their eyesight, Ivy." The Doctor said. "It is their attention, but their devotion to work is what earns them the 'most working civilization in time and space'."
"Woah, that is way cool." I said,then gave it a thought. "So the most known civilization is...in the TARDIS."
"Their home-world was over-run by humans bigger than them." The Doctor said. "Earth was simply over-crowded."
My jaw drops.
"The...The Borrowers are real." I said, in much shock.
"That's what many people like to call them." The Doctor said. Yes, the TARDIS is infinite in space and time; it is kind of creepy when the worst nightmares could be hiding in the TARDIS maze. "I came across them during a visit to Rome in its prime."
"Ah." I said. "You like to visit Rome a lot."
"Not all the time." The Doctor said.
"You told me; you've been there for Pompeii, you've been there for the fall of Rome,and you've been there for a near Dalek invasion." I reminded the Doctor. "And that statue you told me about resembling Rose. What's next? The Victorian era will have a bunch of you running around every single day and you don't see your past selves?"
The Doctor looks to his right; outright shyly folding his arms.
"...I may have." The Doctor said.
"Doctor!" I said. "You're going against the 'you can't be there for the third time' rule; that you told me about."
"It was for a very urgent matter." The Doctor said. "Not all of them were this face."
"Doctor,Rome must be your favorite time era." I said.
The Doctor and I shared a conversation about what time era would be the ideal to spend an entire lifetime in. I learned more about the Doctor through this conversation that he really didn't have a home to return; except for the TARDIS.The TARDIS is his home that he enjoys to be around, live in, and travel with.
Doctor went down the hallway and his shoes made their trademark little squeaks.
I waited until the squeaks were not in my hearing.
"Okay girl." I said, taking off the whole metal part to the TARDIS table decoration. "I think putting my hand in will track down Max before I dropped him off." I slid my hands into the pink gooy-ness. There is a nervous feeling traveling down from my head. "Um, this is the first time I've done this." I cool myself down thinking about nothing. Just nothing. I look up towards the ceiling feeling hopeful The TARDIS would allow me to save her little timelord. "Please."
